Trivia

The Cubchoo family is reminiscent of the Magikarp family. It starts out as a weak-looking Pokémon, but evolves into a strong one.

The drop of mucus coming from the nose of its pre-evolution has become frozen and is now Beartic's beard.

Beartic is the fourth Pokémon to have the appearance of a bear in the series, along with Teddiursa, Ursaring, and Beartic's pre-evolution, Cubchoo.

Beartic is a portmanteau of the words "bear" and "arctic", as it is based on a polar bear.

Beartic is realistically sized; in reality, 8 feet is roughly the size of a polar bear standing on its hind legs.

Beartic's BMI (based on human calculations) is 38.7, compared to the polar bear's BMI (again based on human calculations) of 51.2. This is partly because Beartic is a lot lighter than its real-life counterpart
